Ive had some really bad luck the past few weeks with my car.

Its been vandlised, so It need new paint on the roof and hood, my clutch was giving me trouble, I put a jack through the ac-condensor, and I could not get rid of this damn shaking in the steeing wheel and my Isurence went up 2.5X(almost 400/month now)...I actually went and bought a Bike to try and wein me away from my car because I thought it would never be the same again...

Well, today, I just got sick of the problems, I just need to start fixing this damn car! I decided to have Discount balance the wheels one more time sence it was free anyway. Before that, I washed it because I havent washed it since I bought the bike in september....

Well, just a quick rinse and it looked 10X better...I took it to get the wheels balanced, and Everyone was just Ogling at it, asking me this, askin me that...oh, thats just sick, yadda yadda yadda...

I stepped back and took a look at the car and remebered why Ive spent the last 2 years putting over 7g's into the car...because it's a f*ckin bad ass import. I watched the guy balance the wheels this time, and he did a killer job, 0-0 on all wheels the first try, no gay counter balance or drop center balance....Fired the wheels on there and went for a drive...

The car is sooooo damn smooth when you have balanced wheels(duh!) but damn, i ripped that car well over 100mph today, my brother was with me and loved it.. Damn, Its like me and the car "renewed our vows" or somthing...(yes that way gay, get over it)

Basicly, with a little patients and about 2g's Itll be back to normal.

ive spent two years getting everything I want done, now I need another 2 g's just to get it to "new" condition again...

Paint-500
AC-700
2 new wheels-200
new clutch-flywheel, 500(install myself)

ALMOST DONE DAMN IT!!!!!

As I'm sitting here..staring at my For Sale ads...I'm still loving my Celica..it's a beautiful car.

Today, as I was driving home, I had a couple in a station wagon almost get into a wreck, because they were gawking at my car on the highway. (I guess screaming by them earlier at about 8,000 rpms had something to do with it, too).

I actually looked over at the girl, and she had a WOAH look on her face.

:thumbup:

I've went outside 3 times tonight just to stare at it, sitting in the parking lot..the lamp light glinting of it's smooth angles...it's such a sweet ride.

If noone buys it..I'll still be happy..heheh. :D

Of course..I won't have a Supra TT either, though. :(

i think the celi is definitly a love/hate car. some times you can not do anything but love the look of it but on the other hand you wish it could be a wee bit faster:burnout:

but it's definitly more luv though:gap:

BTW.......that's a sick phucking car RedNOSceli!!!!

That's my for sale ad. I haven't decided to part out the car, I want to sell it with everything it has on it.

I always told myself, the only thing I'd ever switch my Celica for was for a Supra TT. Now's that time.
